A new cell tower would be nice for this little town, but I doubt it'll happen anytime soon, if ever. I'm not exactly sure how things work around here but someone mentioned that the people voted no to a cell tower shortly before I moved into town. I've never seen more than one bar and don't feel like climbing a tree for decent reception. Hopefully, these new rules will help some people.
Sometimes when I step outside in the evening I can see more than a couple neighbors doing the I can't get a cellphone signal dance. It's almost comical then I think gee whiz, some of these people are probably the same ones that voted no for a new tower.

NIMBY: because we want the modern life as long as we dont have to see the back feed.
on a side note id love to see someone building a big housing development get cell towers into it(in a town that is a near total deadzone) and then when they put the ads up for the homes "Full 3g Cell coverage if you live here, no dead zones" though worded more salesman like.

Hey, if Clearwire wants to build a tower on my property, just make sure they've got the entennas downtilted enough so that I can get service. Or, better yet, share their backhaul feed with me. I have no problem with a tower in my back yard if it means better broadband, though cell coverage for me on 3G techs (except CricKet) is just fine. |

said by hottboiinnc:most cities will stamp DENIED on everything. Stamping "denied" is better than the stall tactics used by many states and municipalities.
When an app is denied that pretty much clears the way for it to go to court. When it goes to court, the municipalities usually lose, and it costs a great deal of money. Your money.
Municipalities should do the right thing and work with the wireless carriers to have the applications approved in a timely fashion. The stall tactics just won't fly anymore. |
